I was thinking about usability of programs I use a lot and had some ideas about things that could be done. I wish I knew how to program, and I hope to learn, but I'd like to know what kind of programs that you use could be made more usable and how?

Since I surf the web A LOT, I'd say that Mozilla should have the feature of letting you switch tabs by rolling the mouse wheel. And I'd like to easily be able to access the search bar with a simple keyboard shortcut.

I hate installing a big extension for an obvious thing as mouse wheel on tabs.
